To expect Senior managers to say please and thank you?

Senior team changed a few years ago and new people brought in (all male).

Whenever they email, they never say 'please' or 'thank you'. It feels so unprofessional and really irks me!

My background is civil service where everyone was always very polite.

Am I being unreasonable in expecting some manners?

How do I call them out on this?

Loads of people do it. Model by example and also don't give a fuck about them, it's not something to be proud of.

High level, senior manager here. I always say please and thank you no matter whether it's the CEO or the cleaner I'm talking with. Manners cost nothing and everyone deserves courtesy and respect. It really irks me when the courtesy is not reciprocated so IMO YANBU.

Thank you!
